Sorry for the long break!

Been busy doing University stuff! Which by the way, I have a blog on their illustration blog, which I post stuff on from time to time! Check it out here charlottesdoodles.i.socd.io/ .

So in the mean time I have been doing a lot more digital work that I would love to share with you guys! Hope you like it! And I have to get back to doing more uni work!

Until next time!

App-tastic!

Hello! Hope you're all enjoying the sun! I've been out and about and playing with a new app I found called Bamboo paper!

Bamboo paper is made by the well known graphics tablet company Wacom. So as you can guess already this is a beautiful app! 

What it is, is a note book style app, that you can write and add photos too, here are a few screen shots of what I have created.

 

Again if you have a tablet that can support this app, I really recommend you download it! It's really good for making mixed media idea pages that you can send to friends via social networks.

Let's get digital!

So I have recently acquired my sisters old iPad one and been playing candy crush on it none stop! However today I started to use it for its intended purpose! I downloaded a few apps for drawing and this is one of the better ones I have produced, in keeping with my old hand drawn style.

It's really fun and interactive and if you have an iPad I highly recommend this it's called graphite lite!

As I have more time now after handing in my work I think I will be doing a few of these drawing and posting up the better ones. 

Well done to Andy Murray and to the English weather for finally pulling through!

Why Onions are...

This is one of my new comics, Why onions are dic*heads.

Pardon the crude photoshopping, as I dont have access to an A3 scanner, I had to do it in parts.

Hope you like it, if you think I should carry on this series, please leave a comment! :)

Back after a long break!

Sorry about the really long break, it was down to a few personal and family matters that caused me to take a break from this all. However it's summer I have many projects to do so expect a lot more stuff to be posted up here! 

One project is food narratives! Here is a sneak peek of one!

This is from a short comic strip called 'why onions are dickheads.' I'll post the final pice when I finish it! It's currently in the development phase, and even after this project I may carry it on, as I think it will be an amusing piece to play with.

However I must get back to doing more artwork, just thought I'd update you all!

Have a great Sunday!

Me, Myself and I

As you have probably guessed, this is me! I decided to draw myself from a photo I took before a night out, hence the fancy hair..Somewhat! 

This one is similar again to the others, however I really added detail to the hair as I drew it without detail and it looked like I had placed a pastry on my head! Which is no good! I also emphasised some facial features with shading lines, to add some definition to the face. 

I think next one I am going to paint the face with acrylic, just as I haven't painted with acrylic in years and I really want to get back into that style again, but using the new found style, and trying to find a happy medium between the two. 

Little one

This is my little sister Katie Lawrence! She looks quite a bit like me, even been mistaken for my twin, even though she is 3 years younger than me.

This one, because she is so young has a even better effect with the pink cheeks, it adds an innocence and wonder to her eyes and the whole look. I particularly like the hair the most, I like how it is just an outline, I think this looks really effective.
